The early bird meets the citizen scientist Legere, Taylor

Abstract

This project considers how opportunities for citizen science could be designed in urban parks to inform the design and monitoring of bird habitat restoration sites. Landscape architects are well positioned to design interventions for citizen scientists and birders to collect data in more consistent ways by aligning site programming with existing citizen science projects. This project is focused on applications of citizen science at Trout Lake (John Hendry Park) in Vancouver, but lessons learned could be applied more broadly to inform future bird habitat restoration, public education, and landscape monitoring approaches in urban areas.
